Description Jan Hutař 2018-09-26 19:25:08 UTC
Description of problem:
Implementation of http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/4238 introduced a BFA protection, however this is not configurable at all (enable/disable, number of retries, blacklist timeout, etc.).

It would be beneficial, if I as an admin had a way of configure or completely disable the feature.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite-6.4.0-15.el7sat.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Administer -> Settings and search for "failed_login_attempts_limit"


Actual results:
It is not there


Expected results:
It should be there

Comment 7 Djebran Lezzoum 2018-10-08 08:11:14 UTC
put qe_ack + , as this an important fix (adding the ability to disable or to fine tune the number of attempts of authenticated login to be considered as Brute-force attack) for the Brute-force attack protection
